Previous work along the U.S. Atlantic coast shows that the structure and composition of older geologic strata located seaward of the coast heavily influences the coastal behavior of areas with limited sediment supply, such as the Grand Strand. By defining this geologic framework and identifying the transport pathways and sinks of sediment, geoscientists are developing conceptual models of the present-day physical processes shaping the South Carolina coast. The primary objectives of this research effort are: 1) to provide a regional synthesis of the shallow geologic framework underlying the coastal upland, shoreface and inner continental shelf, and define its role in coastal evolution and modern beach behavior; 2) to identify and model the physical processes affecting coastal ocean circulation and sediment transport, and to define their role in shaping the modern shoreline; and 3) to identify sediment sources and transport pathways; leading to construction of a regional sediment budget.This data set contains shot points for boomer seismic system used during geophysical cruises offshore of the Grand Strand, SC.19991029, 20000313, 2002060319991112, 20000330, 20020618ground conditionCompleteNone planned-79.148629-78.51652733.83658633.146475GeneralU.S. Geological SurveyUSGSWoods Hole Science CenterWHSCCoastal and Marine Geology ProgramCMGPshotsseismicseismic-reflectionboomerESRI point shapefileshotpoint navigationWHSC field activity serial number 00014WHSC field activity serial number 02014WHSC field activity serial number 99044ISO 19115 Topic Categoryoceansoceans and coastaloceans and estuarieslocationtransportationGeneralGrand StrandNorth Myrtle BeachMyrtle BeachSurfsidePawlyes IslandWaites IslandSoutheast United StatesUnited StatesAtlantic OceanNonePublic domain data from the U.S. Government are freely redistributable with proper metadata and source attribution.
